Exciting progress is happening at one of Memphis’s most hotly anticipated dining establishments. Construction is underway at Hive Bagel & Deli’s second location, making both ownership and future diners optimistic for an early summer opening.

The Memphis and Shelby County Division of Planning and Development most recently issued the eatery its sign permit and commercial electrical permit on February 2. A commercial alteration permit for the storefront shows that Hive will have a dedicated 4,540 square feet of space in which to greet its customers, and an occupant load of 40.
